Hello Team,

Raul Claros, from Council President Herb Wesson’s office has expressed interest in joining our meeting next week on Wednesday, March 9th at 1 0AM, at the Wilshire Center BID office at 3600 Wilshire Blvd., Suite 1 032. Raul has been a great ally to the WCBID in our efforts to improve the District and I think he will make an excellent addition to our conversation.

Thank you,

Good Afternoon Everyone,

Mike, i would like to introduce you to John Guevara with People For Parks, the non-profit organization working to get schools opened up all over Los Angeles. Most recently they have opened Berendo MS and Leo Politi ES for 4 hours on Saturday’s.

John, Mike Russell runs the Wilshire Center Business Improvement District, and is connected with all the businesses in the area. He loves the idea of opening up the school and he’s willing to help fundraise with the local business community.

I was wondering if you all have time to meet perhaps next Monday or Wednesday to go over what it takes to open up the school?

Please let me know if that sounds good to everyone.

Thank you,
